Chain Drive vs. Gear Drive
#1
I'm fixin to buy parts for the engine. I need to fix an oil leak that I suspect is coming from the front main seal. I figured while I'm at it I may as well replace soon old components that I know haven't been changed since I've owned the truck (15years). I have been looking at the timing gear drive sets and I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with these. I'm aware of the cost differences. Gear drive sets range from $100-$200 and the chain set ups go from $37-$100. ( or more for double chain set ups).

I'm also going to replace the water pump, harmonic balancer, and fuel pump. Thanks y'all
